Hinman Collator to be Demonstrated
A Hinman Collator--a 450-lb. precision optical instrument used in
analytical bibliography and textual editing——will be installed this
weekend in the Department of Special Collections. The manufacturer
will demonstrate the instrument on Monday, 22 May, in Special, and
staff and other interested persons are invited to attend. The
Collator was purchased with a special equipment grant from the
University.
About 50 Collators are in use in the United States and abroad. The
instrument was developed in 1952 for Charlton Hinman, senior editor
at the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, D.C. He needed
to edit and proofread all the works by Shakespeare at the Folger--a
job he estimated would take 40 years--to prepare an authoritative
edition. With the Collator, the task took two persons less than a
· year.
At UK the Collator willkxaused for a variety of proofreading tasks,
or whenever it is necessary to compare similar texts for complete-
ness and accuracy. One of the first readers using it will be Dr.
Donald Ringe of the English Department. He is currently editing the
novel LIONEL LINCOLN for the American Antiquarian Society's
definitive edition of James Fenimore Cooper's complete works. In
addition, the instrument will be used to train library students in
the practice of modern textual analysis. Time for demonstration: 9:30
